Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I described it all at the beginning of the survey. All I can say she is totally awesome. I definitely will let my friends an family know how professional and caring she is ..

Dr Galchus is very patient and kind. She took a lot of time explaining what I was going through in language I could understand. She relieved so much stress just by taking time to explain things. This is the best patient experience that I could ask for.
